quote Originally posted by Oreif: Actually, I know a few Porsche's a duke could take. Not all Porsche's were fast. the base 914's had a 1.6L (I think thats the size) engine and it wasn't that fast. (The 2.0L ones were faster) The 924's of the mid 80's were also slow. Even the non-turbo 944's were not fast. (I know many that lost to stock V-6 Fiero's)
This was also found out by one of the local body shop guys who found out my 84 Sunbird Turbo will beat his 87 944 stock.

It's a base 944 (the ones with the fastback big rear bubble type window) that is set up for some kind of racing, but is street driven as well as he has driven it to work a few times. I have only seen it a few times and did not get a chance to look at it much. If we can get our cars to a track, it should prove to be interesting

He will kill you. Ask Slammed, or anyone else who races Porsches. The 944 na is almost as fast as the 2.8 and beats its ass on the track

If it's an 8 valve 944 you may take him in a straight line
Around a corner ..nope.. stock for stock the 944 handles better. rear mounted transaxle.. better brakes..
Just to clairify...were talking about a 944 vs a v6 Fiero right?? not a 4cyl I hope.
That pic of the 944 looks so photochopped that even Ray charles would notice.

Yes, it will be a straight line and no, the Fiero is not a V6.
It's a very fast 4 that has amazed many including me as to how quick it is.
Is it faster than his Porsche? I have no idea and as far as I am concerned it doesn't realy matter as this is just for fun

Last I checked we only have one green beast Fiero dude But I think you missed out due to the time allowed to meet up on that one at the time
Edit.. Look, I have a new Pennocks ID Oops. I guess I didn't notice that Marian had posted on this earlier

So he'd start racing, then you'd get in your car, start it, and start your end of the race? Could be close guys. Who wants to hold the bets?

If fiero5 is racing this proshe along with his son. or making it another father son spend time together event. i think its awsome! this guy has go to be the worlds greatest dad.
this is the only guy on the forum when i read his posts i wish i could rate people positive more then once.
I think there was one other person, and thats the guy that spent tons of money to save his kids pet ferret.
